Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
a lot of sherry of course, but also a very pleasant dryness, with quite some chestnut and bitter chocolate at first nosing. Then more meaty tones, ham, chicken bouillon, then some fresh mint and maybe parsley, then more ‘traditional’ raisins and figs… And lastly, some orange juice and mead. In other words, very pleasantly classic and anything but aggressive despite the (relatively) high strength… Water not need here in my opinion. After ten minutes: more and more towards Banyuls or even sweet rich Muscat wine, also coffee
restaurant Palate
coffee-schnapps, ginger and orange liqueur, pepper and just a faint cardboardiness, a little drying. Also blood oranges and more and more blackberries, cassis and raspberries, then a growing spiciness (cloves). Curiously Cabernetty after a few minutes
timer Finish
long, pleasantly winy, with a coffee-ish and liquoricy aftertaste
